You dont need that falsified data to come to the conclusion vaccinations in the US are a problem. Remove it from the picture. Compare the US vaccination schedule to any other develop country. Compare our infant mortality rate. Aside from th

Think of it like a judge. You should be recusing yourself of anything that looks improper. Public servants have a higher standard they need to adhere to and they simply aren't, it is endemic in the public space.

Of course I did. After watching the govt and the FDA in action for 5 decades, detassling corn for Monsanto, watching Monsanto sue farmers into submission, seeing increased rates of cancer autism and other issues. Being told everything is ok

When employees at the FDA leave and take positions at one of the companies they had a hand in approving something for, at an increased salary. The appearance of impropriety is blatant. Regardless of it actually happening or not it looks ter

Ideally your automation and everything else is done so you have a reproducible environment. If that is the case and you recreate the environment when you run into that 15% problem you should be recreating the problem. Yes there were methods

Windows is a 2nd class citizen when automation is concerned IMO. I believe Azure is feeding off of enterprises who are 15 years behind everyone else. Windows as a platform cannot possibly keep up with the fast moving changes required by con

I am not convinced any of them need k8s or even containers. I am convinced many people use these technologies because it is simple and abstracts away the required skill sets to do complex operational tasks but only covers about 85% of those

IMO .... AWS has been eating everyones lunch. K8s was a play by Google to sell GKE / GCP and it worked. Problem being not everyone has a team of Google SREs to manage it so when k8s blows up the skillset to figure out the issues simply

Speaking as someone from a non changing timezone, (Phoenix area) I can tell you I am much better rested than I was living where the time changed. I dont care if you fix the time at DST or ST, not changing the time is better for you IMO.

No blame was on AWS. The TAMs tried to help fix things but no one was listening. Many times I was the only person meeting the 2-3 TAMs we had on the account. I have many stories about this startup. The idea is great. If the startup succeeds

Here in the US traffic fines, being the victimless crime they are, seem to be a backdoor taxation method. in AZ to have a crime you have to have a victim, ask the nice officer who the victim is when you go 5mph over ?
